About the
author
David Elkington was born in England in 1962 but spent his
formative years travelling and exploring the Southern Hemisphere
with his parents. His childhood in Australia was supplemented by
sojourns in Polynesia, New Zealand and Indonesia. It was in these
places that he first developed an interest in Sacred Sites and
ancient traditions.

He trained as an artist at the Bath
Academy of Art where an interest in the relationship between
Christian myth and sacred sites was fuelled. Research for 'In the
Name of the Gods' began in earnest in the early 1980s when he
walked through Europe and the Middle East on a quest to understand
and appreciate the mind of Ancient Man and his relationship with
particular sites upon the Earth. For 20 years David has been led
on a revelatory trail through world mythology, linguistics and
philology into geophysics, architecture, acoustics, music, neuro-physiology,
theology and still further into the all-encompassing, resonant
atmosphere of the planet. As his research continued, surprising
results emerged. For several years, David has been working with Dr
Keith Hearne, the 'father of lucid dream research', on a new area
of psychology - Geolinguistics - which sees the development of
language as a direct result of the Earth's physical environment.

David began to introduce his work to
the public in 1996 when he presented a major lecture on 'Acoustic
Resonance, Life and Consciousness' at the Quest for Knowledge
Conference in London. He lectures in England and Europe, has
co-hosted a tour of the major ancient sites of Egypt and is a
member of the Egypt Exploration Society and Palestine Exploration
Fund. He has been a consultant to the government of Sierra Leone,
to the BBC, ITV, and to NASA.

Book Description
(from the publisher)
Everything that exists does so because of vibration.

Matter comes into being because energy vibrates - any science
book will
tell you that. But understand the science of vibration, learn how
to use
it and you will have the key to...

Well, everything.

Knowledge like that would be worth a
lot of money. How about £692 billion? That's how wealthy in
today's terms, the Templars became after their search for
knowledge in the Middle East. If we wish to know what knowledge
they found, we only have to look at what happened next -
Cathedrals, scores of them, erected across Europe.

Why were these immense edifices
built? Have you heard the acoustics in these places? Make the
right sound and the effect is mind expanding, modern scientific
research can prove it so.

The Earth vibrates, bell-like and
deeply, within itself and as a consequence of incoming cosmic
rays. In the alpha state man's own mind is in harmony with the
resonance of Mother Earth. Take the Ancient's knowledge, and the
right vibration in the right place can link you to the secrets of
the Earth and of the Cosmos too. This spiritual technology
requires a sacred laboratory; an acoustically designed building,
appropriate in shape and position - like the Great Pyramid for
example. Now the mysterious Ancient Egyptian ceremony of 'the
opening of the mouth' begins to make sense: Sound: The Word.

This knowledge of vibration is a key
to the self and to the Cosmos. This is the stuff that religions
are founded upon. The Ancients knew about this; the Acoustic
Anomalies team at Princeton University have proven that with their
researches in England and Ireland. The Neolithic designs carved in
rocks at Newgrange, for example, clearly describe the amazing
acoustic qualities of the chamber. There is no doubt, these people
were experts in sound.

The Ancients knew the secrets of
vibration and with that, they knew the power of names - the
speaking of them and the giving of them, holy names, God's names
and also titles such as Jesus, Mary and Anna. What's more, this
was not just a local knowledge, it was world-wide. This is why the
versions of these three names are to be found the world over,
predating Christianity by thousands of years. And they are clues
to spiritual technology itself, always connected to places and
times of vibrational power.

Jesus before Christ; what does it
all mean? It means that, at last, science and religion can be
reconciled. The truth has never changed, it is we who have
forgotten. Matter comes into being because energy vibrates: 'In
the beginning was The Word!' And Now? - As ever, The Word.

David Elkingon's book 'In The Name
of the Gods' is an account of his years of research. Read it and
you will gain a new understanding. You will never look at the
world, its history, or its future, in the same way again.

This book will forever change your
view of religion and spirituality, and opens up new vistas of
science unknown in the previous century.
